Regardless of reasons (but just knowing how much data was copied is one of mine) I'd still prefer more convenient access to logfile history. Also, a single logfile summarizing basic statistics after each copy… or easier access to those stats, e.g. through AppleScript variable, to simplify rolling your own summary logfile.

An alternative is to send me an email on completion - can it do that ?
I vaguely remember seeing post-completion scripts, maybe using Growl, to do it.
